]]>Turning on the oven is the last thing that I ever want to do in July, so when I discover a way to serve dessert without baking, I’m all about it! This mini raspberry ice cream cake recipe couldn’t be tastier, but the best part is how easy it is to customize the recipe. I used several different berry flavors of Tillamook Ice Cream and added in some fresh Oregon berries and chocolate sauce. I can’t wait to give this recipe a try with chocolate flavors and fresh fruit next – anything for more Tillamook Mudslide!

Preparation
1. Line two mini loaf pans (we used 5 ¾ inch by 2 inch) with parchment paper, leaving at least one inch of parchment hanging over the top of each side.

2. Start by putting ½ cup of Tillamook Oregon Strawberry Ice Cream at the bottom of each loaf pan, and smooth it out. Keep in mind that it works best to use ice cream that is slightly softened, but not completely melted.

3. Add a layer of raspberries to each pan, then freeze to set for at least 30 minutes. Next, add a layer of Tillamook Oregon Blueberry Ice Cream, and top it with a layer of blueberries and then a layer of fudge sauce. Freeze to set for another 30 minutes.

5. When ready to serve, run a knife along the edges of the pan if necessary to loosen the ice cream, them use the parchment to carefully pull the cake out of the pan. Serve with additional fudge sauce and berries!

]]>Summer time is finally here, which means it’s time to break out the plastic dishes, invite over all your friends and have a backyard BBQ! Whether you’re gathering for Father’s Day, a birthday or just to celebrate on a Tuesday night, no Summertime cookout is complete without a really great dessert. This cobbler, made with Tillamook California Peach Lowfat Yogurt is it! It features a sweet blend of stone fruit and berries, mixed with some warm spices like cinnamon and ginger all topped with a melt-in-your-mouth peach yogurt biscuit. Not to mention cobbler is a breeze to make, which means less time for you spent in the kitchen and more time enjoying the sunshine with your guests.

Now the only question left to answer is whether or not you want to start the evening with burgers from the grill or if you should make it a dessert first kind of meal. : )

2. In another bowl, combine the flour, salt and nutmeg. Add the butter and quickly work it into the flour with your fingertips. Once the dough starts to look pebbly, add the yogurt and mix with your hands until fully combined (this can be messy!)

3. Form the dough into 8 or 9 balls, flatten then slightly and place them in the baking dish, covering the fruit as completely as possible.

4. Whisk the egg and then brush it on top of each biscuit. Sprinkle with sugar, and then bake for 45-50 minutes until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.

]]>One of the best things about Tillamook Yogurt, besides the great taste and texture of course, is the addition of live and active cultures. The cultures are responsible for making yogurt an excellent addition to your daily diet because they provide you with healthy bacteria called probiotics. Probiotics are an essential part of having a healthy digestive system because they keep the number of bad bacteria in your body very low.

All of our yogurt; Farmstyle Greek, Lowfat Yogurt, Light Yogurt, and Dessert Yogurt contain slightly different combinations of live and active cultures, although they all provide very similar health benefits. The live and active cultures we use in Tillamook Low Fat Yogurt are L. bulgaricus, S. thermophilus, L. acidophilus, B. bifidus. The live and active cultures we use in Tillamook Light Yogurt are S. thermophiles and L. bulgaricus. The live and active cultures in Tillamook Dessert Yogurt are S. thermophiles and L. bulgaricus. The cultures in our Farmstyle Greek Yogurt are S.Thermophilus. L. Bulgaricus, L.Acidophilus, B. Lactis, L.Casei, L.Rhamnosus, and L.Lactis.

]]>Summer is my favorite times of year, not only because of the warm weather and longer days, but also because of all the opportunities to break out all my red, white, and blue outfits! A season that starts with Memorial Day, ends with Labor Day and has the Fourth of July thrown in the middle not only calls for an all-American outfit, complete with a stars and striped hat, it also calls for a very patriotic dessert to bring to your holiday BBQ!

Let this Red, White and Blueberry Greek Yogurt Cake be the star dessert at your party. It’s easy to make, easy to assemble, and sure to impress your family and friends with its patriotism!

3. In another bowl, whisk to combine the yogurt, sugar, eggs, and butter.

4. Whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until completely combined.

5. Pour the batter evenly into your pans, then bake for about 30 minutes or until a tooth pick inserted comes out clean.

6. Transfer the cakes from the pans to a cooling rack and allow them to cool completely.

7. Once the cakes are cool, add the cream to the bowl of an electric mixer and mix on high speed using the whisk attachment. Once the cream begins to thicken slightly, add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract and mascarpone (if using). Continue to whisk until stiff peaks form.

8. To assemble the cake, even out each cake layer by slicing the dome off the top with a serrated knife. Place one cake layer on a plate and spread a layer of whipped cream, about 1 inch thick, on top followed by a layer of assorted berries. Carefully place the second cake layer on top, then add another layer of cream and berries.

Donny U.
Not far from Tillamook, I grew up on a rugged patch of the Oregon Coast where the mountains meet the sea. There I spent much of my time playing in the forests and on the beach, developing a passion for the outdoors. In college I studied design with a focus on sustainability and in the future I’d love to start my very own design firm. I’m excited to go back on the yogurt tour again and love the Cinnamon Hazelnut Farmstyle Greek Yogurt! Extra Sharp Cheddar is a favorite of mine as well.

Jon R.Hey Guys! I’m so stoked to be able to bring the new Farmstyle Greek Yogurt out to you on the road! When’ I’m not sampling this amazing, thick and creamy yogurt, I love to build furniture, cook and grow veggies! I’m excited to see your wide-eyes when you taste yummy this yogurt is!

Catherine T.Before embarking on the Tillamook Tour, my days in the Pacific NW were filled with food carts, hikes, live music and painting. I enjoy any opportunity I get to go outside and take in the natural beauty of the Northwest, whether it’s the impressiveness of Multnomah Falls or an offbeat roadside attraction. I enjoy discovering the unique adventures of everyday life. My favorite type of Tillamook Farmstyle Greek Yogurt is Plain & Simple, it’s my blank canvas. I like to add fruits, nuts, etc.

Hi Friends! I could not be more excited to be a member of the Tillamook Farmstyle Greek Yogurt team! I recently graduated from Linfield College and have been living in Portland ever since. I love the Pacific North West and enjoy hiking with my puppy, Marvin and laughing with my friends! I’m a huge Tillamook Farmstyle Greek Yogurt fan especially the Washington Raspberry flavor. So yummy! Tillamook has always been a part of my life and I can’t wait to share Tillamook with you!

I love spicy lemonade, (give me some fresh squeeze lemon, a dollop of honey and a sprinkle of cayenne and I’m set!), so I decided it was the perfect inspiration to create the first Tillamook spicy smoothie. I started with one of my favorite Tillamook yogurt flavors, Key Lime, and added a dash of cayenne, some honey and ice. The result was delicious, but lacking. It needed more flavor and something to bulk it up a bit. To liven things up, I poured some oats and frozen pineapple into the blender, and gave it another whirl. The end result was surprisingly delicious! It had just the right balance of spicy and sweet, and was filling enough to be a meal in a glass.

Do you like spicy flavors? Give this smoothie a try and let us know what you think!
